Hi!
I’ve been searching for a Rss Reader, and am now testing Egress, which seems to be the best one. I also pretend to test others:
- Spb News
- SBSH GoNews Touch
- RssHub
- Yomomedia
I will use it especially to read articles and news (not much podcasts), and will probably download everything and then read it offline.
So what Rss Reader do you think is the best? Which one do you prefer?
Regards!

Hey everyone, I am running an XDA IIs at the moment, and have alot of pdf's that I would like to read on my one hour bus ride into the city, I have tried the latest adobe reader but it is slow and not very "reading" friendly. Does anyone have any suggestions, I have tried converting the pdf is .doc format but that is a no go as well because I could never find a coverter that actually worked. I did a little search on this forum but no definitive results. Thanks alot
On my device, ClearVue PDF is preinstalled. But there is also a good freeware alternative (PocketXpdf).
Hey there Alegra, thanks for the tip, will give it a try... will also see if I can purchase ClearVue for a try.
i often convert dpf's to Lit to use the ms ebook reader which is free and let one set bookmarks which is importent if i read whole novels
That might be a good idea, I do like the .lit format, will have a look at that too
Did you tried XPDF?

If it is preinstalled, you don't need to buy it. If not, there are enough freeware alternatives.
You can also look for the thread "iPhone style browser" here in the forum. That's Picsel Browser, also a very good web browser / Office / PDF viewer.
EDIT: XPDF is a PDF viewer for computer (I couldn't find a Windows Mobile version on their page). There is a port for Pocket PC (PocketXpdf) which I already mentioned.
Hello everyone
I'm a new HTC Touch HD user ( I bought it yesterday), I have been a palm user for almost 8 years!, and finally I took the step and change to windows mobile!!, principally because I need to work a lot with word, excel and emails on the go, and not always I can bring my laptop with me.
I have been reading diferent stuff about WM for around 10 hours, and it's quite diferent than the experience with palm OS, I think with Palm OS was much more easy to choose a software for each job!!
well I would like some help please:
1.- I need a good email software, which support many accounts and foulders to organice my emails just like outlook, I'm thinking in "seven" http://community.seven.com/viewforum.php?f=17
or just outlook mobile, but I would like to heard some oppinions before buy this last one.
2.- a good PDF reader, I need to read a lot of datasheets, and I need a software which can word wrap and be finger friendly. adobe reader LE coudn't do it, eather ubook, or maybe I'm doing something wrong? any idea about it?
3.- for GPS I'm thinking in buying IGO 8.3, it's a good choise?
4.- a good agenda software, and I think I will buy Pocket Informant, any coment?
well this is the most important thing for the moment, apart of this and only like a comment, I'm looking for a good clock with alarms, a good english and chinese dictionary, music player, movie player, picture view software, etc.
any help or comment will be apreciated
iGO8 its ,imho ,the best option. I have tryed TomTom but iGO beats it for far..

Hi stranger!!!
Hi! i-m trying to bring my experience to this panel... i-m not an expert but have know both worlds, Palm and PPC devices... i-m own today a Samsung I900 Omnia runing under WM 6.1...
in my experience here you are some tips about your questions....
1) Outlook Mobile provided is good enough... it can manage messaging (SMS) and mailing (i have 4 emmails including hotmail, gmail, yahoo and a propietary one) without any problem... is something spartan if you understand but give you a peace of mind to search and found something more sophidsticated... may be u can try Fleximail...
2) My Omnia had a PDF reader File Wiewer that's good enough... i-m not shure is a standard in WM 6... try Pocket Adobe or Mobile Foxit intead....
3) GPS depends where are you use it!!! because of maps IGO is a good one if you use it in Usa or EUROPE... i-m in Argentina, South America, here Garmin XT rules because detailed maps that it works...
4) I have Pocket Informant and it's superb!!! another good one is Iambic Agendus Pro... i-m not shure rank of prices... both are excellent....
+ clock with alarms: SPB TIME or Ptravel Alarm
+english and chinese dictionary: True Term
+music player: sorry i like WMedia...
+movie player: again WM
picture view software: Pocket XNView or Resco
all topics are just an opinion, hopefully that give you some easy guideline and my english isn't zulu 4 u (MY TONGUE IS SPANISH) c u HERE OR @ WEB...
hugs from Argentina
Jorge
thanks tossero
I think I will check the maps of IGO and if they have good ones for Asia I will buy it
thanks jorgec333
mm, thanks for your advices, I didn't know Fleximail, I will check, about the agenda, yes I used to use agendus, its really good, but I didn't know was good for WM too.
BTW touch HDD came with adobe reader LE, which is really bad in my opinion, I will check the ones you recommended me!!
BeyondPod isn't working well. :-(
I tried RSSHub, seemed to work pretty good.
Thanks. I'll try it!
I have tried a lot off feeds reader on TP2, Now I'm using SPB News wich is finger friendly but if u want a goog one which can sync with google reader so the choise would be GoNews Touch!
Which application is the best RSS reader for you and why?
I am looking for an RSS reader application which is fast, smooth and fingerfriendly. I have used a lot, but didnt find any aplication with this three requests.
Applications which I have used for a long time are:
- SPB news: very fingerfriendly, but it isnt very smooth.
- SBSH GoNews: fingerfriendly, good working search function, but also not fast and smooth.
- Ilium NewsBreak: goodworking search function, fast but not fingerfriendly.
I use SPB now because its easy to use, very fingerfriendly and looks very nice.
am using SPB news... has the features to limit the number of articles retained in the Phone...
New version is Smoother... Plus You can now mark your articles so they won't be written 'over'...
now you can also set how much space you want to allocate...
i've tried the other two but none has the feature to limit the number of articles...
Try pRssReader !
When it comes to RSS readers I used to rely on prss but eventually gave it up because of its many bugs (folders once created could not be deleted...). I switched to YomoMedia which so far has completely satisfied me. Its fingerfriendly, has all the features I need and its completely free. The only con is the fact that you have to configure it over the internet. But once this is done it works flawlessly. Give it a try you certainly wont regret it.
